Chapter 442 Two Culprits
After saying that, Ling Yicheng found a clean bench and helped Su Xiaoli sit down first, then he took the shopping bag and the thermos bucket and went to the pickled meat noodle shop to line up.
Su Xiaoli looked at the hustle and bustle in front of him. As an ordinary citizen from Lingzheng County, he just felt happy and at peace.
Unconsciously, she had already regarded this place as her real hometown.
She placed her hands gently on her belly and chatted tenderly with Xiao Miaomiao.
"Miaomiao, look, it's lively here, isn't it? This is where mom lived. Life will definitely get better and better."
Xiao Miaomiao also responded to her mother with an excited little foot.
Su Xiaoli was immersed in the little happiness of the communication between mother and daughter, but she heard the sound of a truck braking in an emergency stop.
Then, she heard angry curses that were completely different from the peaceful and joyful atmosphere before her.
"It took you the whole day to get this little! Do you want to die?!" a man's rude and rough voice.
Su Xiaoli shuddered for no apparent reason and raised her head involuntarily, looking in the direction of the sound.
That person was... His face looked familiar, but he had a few more scars and bruises than I remembered.
Zhang Hongbing?!
Lai Chunhua’s good son.
Wasn't he thrown in jail?
Su Xiaoli thought about it and realized that it was true. It has been more than ten years since Zhang Hongbing was arrested.
He was released, but still not doing his job? Somehow, looking at Zhang Hongbing's ferocious face, she felt panic for no reason.
Ling Yicheng was also attracted by the scolding for a moment. Although he didn't know the manic man, his heart inexplicably tightened.
It was like the wild animal's keen instincts kicked in again, and it felt really bad.
Ling Yicheng quickly put away the noodles and stewed meat he had bought, handed Aunt Chen a hundred-dollar bill, and without a second thought, "No need for change."
Without caring about Aunt Chen's various thanks behind him, Ling Yicheng quickly returned to Su Xiaoli.
He said without hesitation, in a slightly hurried tone: "Let's go home."
Su Xiaoli nodded quickly and stood up holding the armrest of the chair.
Ling Yicheng held the shopping bag and the thermos in one hand and put his other hand loosely behind Su Xiaoli to protect her.
Both of them quickened their pace and walked towards home.
Zhang Hongbing just happened to raise his head.
The temperament and appearance of the two people were already eye-catching in the crowd, and he suddenly saw this man and woman.
Zhang Hongbing’s roar suddenly stopped, his eyes were bloodshot and his eyeballs were bulging out.
Aren’t those two the same bastards who caused him so much trouble? !
He hasn't seen Gu Feihan and Su Xiaoli for more than ten years.
Of course he could not forget Su Xiaoli, and Gu Feihan who was protecting Su Xiaoli at that time... Apparently Zhang Hongbing mistook Ling Yicheng, who looked 60% similar to Su Xiaoli.
Even though he recognized the wrong person, Zhang Hongbing's mind had already become extremely distorted and extreme.
Seeing those two people becoming increasingly wealthy and peaceful, Zhang Hongbing felt so angry that his teeth ached. In an instant, he was filled with rage, and his internal organs all boiled and exploded, with blood rushing to his forehead.
His life was ruined by those two people!
The culprit!
From being the son of the village chief, a man who was a bully in the village, he ended up spending ten years in prison.
After he was released, his father had died long ago and he had lost all his support. He had little education and could only do hard labor on the construction site, pulling and carrying steel bars.
Even if he was just doing hard labor, as long as he lived a good life, it could be a legitimate livelihood, but for some reason he had recently become addicted to gambling.
Every day after pulling the steel bars and unloading them from the truck, he would go to the small underground casino at the entrance of the village to gamble.
Zhang Hongbing’s gambling addiction has developed to the point where he doesn’t even want to carry steel bars anymore. He only wants to go to the casino to win money and make a fortune.
But today he was unlucky and lost all the money he had.
Zhang Hongbing, who had been drinking, took advantage of the fact that it was getting dark. He was familiar with the people on the construction site and secretly drove the truck that was carrying steel bars from the construction site to the county town. He stole some short steel bars and put them on the truck, intending to sell the scrap metal for money tomorrow.
But when you think about it, you can't make much money from selling the scrap metal, so he drove to Lai Chunhua and robbed her for money for food.
Unexpectedly, Lai Chunhua had less than a few dollars in her hand.
There was not even enough money for wine, let alone gambling! In an instant, Zhang Hongbing, with his blood boiling, had jumped onto the truck.
He started the car with two "clicks", stepped on the accelerator, and rushed straight towards the backs of the "adult couple".
Ling Yicheng instantly felt a gust of evil wind and a rumbling sound on his back.
It happened so quickly, almost as an instinctive reaction, he stretched out his long arms, hugged Su Xiaoli and turned her away, while the thermos in his other hand swung behind him.
Ling Yicheng was hit hard by the side of the truck. The truck's shell, which was already curled up, pierced through his clothes and cut his back and shoulders, and blood oozed out instantly.
The two were knocked down by the huge force and fell on the side of the truck.
Even though the pain in his back was unbearable, Ling Yicheng still did not forget to cushion it under Su Xiaoli.
Su Xiaoli's mind had already gone blank and her body was aching and numb.
The little baby in my belly was kicking wildly.
Fortunately, thanks to Ling Yicheng's desperate protection, the two of them barely escaped the truck, or rather, the god of death.
The car window was smashed by the thermos barrel, and Zhang Hongbing's vision suddenly became blurred.
Zhang Hongbing in the car slammed on the brakes like a mad dog, and the truck made a sharp and annoying rumble.
Ling Yicheng and Su Xiaoli's faces turned pale.
But now is not the time to panic, there is no use in panicking.
Because before the two of them could react, the old truck had already backed up and slammed into them again at an angle, this time more fiercely and violently than before! "Mad man!"
The scene was in chaos.
The earth seemed to be shaking wildly.
It all happened so fast that Ling Yicheng had no time to think. He hugged Su Xiaoli tightly, protecting her head with one hand and her waist and abdomen with the other, and used all his strength to roll away from his original position.
This time, Zhang Hongbing, who had stepped on the accelerator, was obviously unable to stop the car. In an instant, the truck crashed straight into a wall of the shopping mall.
“Bang!——”
There was a loud bang! Everyone around closed their eyes, and the world seemed to be silent.
Blood splattered immediately.
In the gap between the car body and the wall was the family of three who had just walked in front of Su Xiaoli and Ling Yicheng on the way to the mall.
There is no way to compare the fragile human body and the impact of a truck.
The truck was completely written off, its hood bent, its appearance completely destroyed, and huge plumes of smoke rising.
Faced with such a powerful impact, the two adults became as thin as paper.
Perhaps because she was eager to protect her child, at the last moment before the car hit her, the mother's pupils suddenly dilated, and she shook the child hard and kicked him out with one foot, and the child was thrown under the bottom of the truck.
The little boy let out a scream of panic and pain, but his parents probably didn't even have the chance to scream.
